| 1054 - |
(pronounced ten-fifty-four)(n.) Information (or anything else) that arrives long after the event itself, especially when it arrives too late. (From the year AD 1054, when SN1054 --that is, super nova 1054-- appeared in the sky, was recorded by Chinese, Japanese, and Arabic astronomers, was visible in broad daylight for three weeks and by night for two solid years before fading. Its remains form the Crab Nebula. Ironically, the actual explosion took place around 5446 BC and only got here in 1054, because it was so far away.)

An historically attested 1054: In February of 1815, News arrives in New Orleans of the Treaty of Ghent ending the (American) War of 1812; unfortunately, the last battle of the war had been fought in New Orleans on January 8, 1815 ... so the news didn't really help much. |
